Priyanka Mary’s transfer as Hassan Deputy Commissioner comes two months after she took over from Akram Pasha.
Hassan Deputy Commissioner Priyanka Mary Francis was transferred out of the district and replaced by Akram Pasha, who was previously the Commissioner of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department. The transfer comes just three days after the Election Commission of India lifted the model code of conduct following the completion of the Lok Sabha Elections. The transfer will be completed once the counting of votes in the municipality elections are completed. Priyanka's transfer comes just two months after she took over as Hassan DC at the expense of Akram, who was transferred on the orders of the Election Commission. Priyanka, who was previously the DC of Udupi district has not been given a posting by the state government following her transfer. Akram is the latest DC to take charge of Hassan district, which is the home district of JD(S) leaders HD Deve Gowda, HD Revanna and Prajwal Revanna. In her short tenure as Hassan DC, Priyanka took up a complaint against Prajwal charging him of filing a false affidavit for the Lok Sabha Elections. The probe over the issue is still going on. She also dismissed three polling officials and ordered a probe against HD Revanna after he was accused of allowing proxy voting in Holenarasipura. A probe was also ordered to look into Rs. 1.2 lakh cash found in a police vehicle in Holenarasipura in the run-up to the elections. Public Works Minister H D Revanna is the JD(S) MLA from Holenarasipura Assembly constituency. Revanna has publicly made statements against Priyanka in the past two months. In the past year, five IAS officers have taken charge as DC of Hassan district including Priyanka, Akram, Rohini Sindhuri, and D Randeep. Rohini Sindhuri was locked in a prolonged battle with the state government over her transfer from in 2018 after she was transferred out in contravention of the notified rules of Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT). Eventually, she secured her reappointment after a five-month long legal battle.
